With a program of participatory experiences and conversations, Forecast is designed to inspire and engage by re-imagining the way we meet and celebrate the profession, share our stories and learn through discourse and debate.

Forecast is taking place in Brisbane from Thursday 16 - Saturday 18 October 2014.

Over three days on the banks of the Brisbane River, the inaugural Festival of Landscape Architecture will prototype a new approach for Landscape Architecture, reflecting the way we work as designers – transparently, collaboratively and iteratively.
